Oscail Software for Crystallography and Molecular Modelling
Oscail is a control program which provides convenient automated access to all of the crystallography, molecular modelling and visualization software.
Visualization software -
View molecules and pack crystal lattices using
ORTEX, (interactive Ortep) with several hardcopy options. Photorealism is available using the Raster3D components
RASTEP and
RENDER which are linked to IrfranView (an outstanding graphics viewer).
Rendered
movies of rotating molecules and molecular dynamics are simple to make using
RASMOV. These movies are suitable for web pages, presentations etc. Rotatable opengl rendered graphics are provided by
Pogl with high resolution output of any structure or crystal lattice generated by
ORTEX or
Moilin.
The
Crystallography Software also includes -
CAD4 data reduction (
XCAD),
Space Group determination (
ABSEN and
GETSPG),
Structure solution and refinement (
SHELX),
Absorption Correction (
ABSCALC),
Lattice examination (
ORTEX), Lattice void search (
VOID), Cell and Lattice Symmetry checking (
CHKSYM),
Powder pattern simulation (
Powutl) and display (
Powdis).
Crystal Structure Prediction for ionic and covalent organics (
Ritmol) with test data.
The excellent PFE text editor is integrated to simplify file editing. A utility (
Formats) is available to convert between file types.
Oscail also provides
On Line Help for all of the programs.
